The answer is 5(3)^x because tripling something means the base must be 3, which leaves the 5 to be the principal value.

In the figure below, OS=ST and the coordinates of T are (k, 5). What is the value of K?
horsena [70]

Answer:

Option (K)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

Coordinates of the point T(x, y),

x-coordinate shows the distance (ST) of point T horizontally from origin and y-coordinate show the vertical distance (OS) of point T from the origin.

If OS = ST, x and y coordinates should be same in measure.

For the point (k, 5),

OS = 5 and ST = k

Since, OS = ST,

Therefore, k = 5

Option (K) will be the correct option.

Angle C is an inscribed angle of circle P. Angle C measures (-3x - 6)° and arc AB measures (-4x)° . Find x
Fynjy0 [20]
To find angle c, the fourmula is 1/2 of the intercepted arc. so, this would be (-3x-6)=(-4x)/2, then bring the 2 over, (-3x-6)2=-4x, multiply the 2, -6x-12=-4x, -2x=12, simplify, x=-6

check by plugging in.
